Finding Your Voice: A Sharpie Comics Workshop with Polly Guo
Craft a comic to create your narrative and find your voice through storytelling. Participants will learn to create self-reflective characters through a community lens. Polly will teach workshop attendees how to draw, write, and assemble their own comic, all by using papers, sticky notes, and Sharpies! The workshop is open to the public. Previous art experience is not required!
